Definitions

  • the present disclosure relates to photodynamic therapy.
  • I-PDT with porfimer sodium offers promising outcomes for patients with refractory locally advanced cancer.
  • the use of I-PDT with porfimer sodium (Photofrin®) is approved for palliation in patients with esophageal cancer or lung cancer with airway obstruction, who are non-candidates for surgery or radiation therapy.
  • I-PDT with porfimer sodium has been used, in compassionate care settings, to treat patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
  • a principal clinical goal has been to shorten treatment times by administering the therapeutic light at high dose rates (i.e., 400 mW/cm) that are clinically approved by the FDA for I-PDT with porfimer sodium.
  • PDT has also been viewed as beneficial when considering the relatively minor nature of adverse effects. Additionally, it has been noted that PDT provides excellent cosmetic outcomes. To date, it has been believed that during I-PDT the changes in tissue temperature do not affect the response. Physicians and researchers assumed that PDT is associated with minimal heating. The clinically approved, and used, light dose rate (400 mW/cm) for PDT or I-PDT with porfimer sodium was chosen arbitrarily, about 25 years ago. There was no systemic study to evaluate potential tissue heating during I-PDT. Several retrospective clinical studies suggest that PDT and I-PDT will result in retention of functional anatomy and other benefits. While offering improved palliative outcomes for patients with such advanced diseases, there remains a need for further improvement.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé et un système de traitement d'un tissu à l'aide d'une thérapie photodynamique (PDT). Un photosensibilisateur est administré au tissu et une ou plusieurs fibres optiques sont placées dans le tissu. Une lumière de traitement est appliquée au tissu au moyen de la ou des fibres optiques. Une température du tissu est mesurée pendant l'application de la lumière de traitement, et un débit de fluence de la lumière de traitement est modifié sur la base de la température du tissu. Par exemple, le débit de fluence peut être modifié pour être inférieur si la température du tissu est supérieure à un seuil prédéfini.
